Need help finding these breathers....
I saw these on the cover of the current Summit catalog. They look like exactly the thing for me to use to pull vacuum from my valve covers. Have any of you guys seen anything like them, or know where to look?
Thanks,

I dont know where to find those, but they sure are nice....if you find where to get them please let us know...are you going to run the lines into your vacuum pump?
And I'll keep and eye out for them too...Or ya might call Summit and ask in there Advertising Dept. who built the motor? just a thought?

Thanks Russ,
I talked to the engine builder as soon as I saw them, unfortunately he did the engine, but didn't do the valve covers. One of the guys posted a catalog on the other forum last nite that has em.

For the purpose of experimentation I'm just going to run one on the passenger side. It will go to the vacuum pump. Right now I'm pulling from the valley under the manifold, but it is sucking WAY too much oil out into the puke can.

Tell your driveline shop what you are doing. They'll fix you up with a shaft that'll take it.
